The Night Elves prepared for battle, their troops restless and eager to move.
The first wave to launch an assault consisted of thousands of 'Centaurs Forerunners,' low-level wild creatures ranging from levels 12 to 14, which were also the most common low-level combat units among the Centaur tribes.
With no proper armor to speak of, and weapons that were nothing more than crude battle axes, they surged forward in disorganized groups of thirty to fifty, charging at Astranaar from all directions.
It was less a charge and more akin to a death march. Astranaar was surrounded by rivers on two sides, while the other two fronts were elevated highlands covered with towering trees, where dense ranks of archers were stationed.
